Forum Thread of the Day: “Butter irons?”

Published

on

Today’s Forum Thread of the Day comes from Norboo who asks WRXers what they feel are some of the best feeling irons currently on the market. Our members give their thoughts with a variety of different irons receiving the “buttery soft” status.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • Pepperturbo: “My new Titleist 620 CB&MB’s are not only beautiful looking but smooth as butter. The problem is they look so good I don’t want to get them dirty.”
  • Hougz79: “Mizuno is hard to beat. Much softer than any Titleist I’ve ever gamed. As far as cast, it’s almost impossible to beat i210. They’re softer than my old 718AP2.”
  • anni5009: “I’ve played a bunch of different Mizuno’s in the past; those are incredibly soft pretty much up and down the lineup. I have to say though my z785s are shockingly soft, quite possibly significantly better than any of the Mizuno’s I’ve had”
  • jerryo: “Taylormade P770, seriously!”
  • simonnd: “Cobra Fly-Z Forged and Mizuno Mp-53 are soft and forgiving.”
  • Jonesy: “FG62’s and 588MB’s to throw some curveballs in there.”

    Titelst AP3’s are pretty soft to me! I understand the face is forged.

    I’m diggin’ my Titleist AP3’s. Rumor has it the face is forged, but nothing else. Works for me, and they feel soft! Anyone else agree
    with that?
